Musings of Science Fiction and Reality
SO, I was trying to figure out how Shamira's flight-suit worked and how best to explain the advanced technology when I came across this nifty article.

Now THAT is pretty cool--not just because of what it suggests about the future of diving and transporting much-needed oxygen, but especially because something like what they're describing would have been considered complete science fiction only a few years ago. Hell, there are some that probably STILL consider it complete science-fiction!
Which of course gets you thinking about all the nifty devices we have these days that were, at one point in time, nothing more than someone's over-excited imagination at work. The credit card, the cell phone, hell even escalators and elevators, were all, at one point, nothing more than a made-up dream written on a page.
This is what happens when Dragon gets on the computer while sleep deprived....
